California Organized Investment Network (COIN) Is a Collaborative Effort Between the California Department of Insurance, the Insurance Industry, Community Affordable Housing and Economic Development Organizations, and Community Advocates.

The Investigation Division investigates suspected fraud committed by insurance agents, brokers, public adjusters, bail agents, insurance companies and other individuals and entities transacting the business of insurance who perpetrate fraud against consumers.

Email Address Search Report

Section 1729 of the California Insurance Code states, in part, that every licensee shall immediately notify the commissioner using an electronic service of any change in his or her e-mail address.

To assist insurers and insurance agencies in monitoring their agents' compliance with the notice of change of email address requirement, the California Department of Insurance (CDI) developed an email address search report which lists all of the agents that are either appointed by the insurer or endorsed by the agency that do not have an email address on file with CDI. Please refer the licensee(s) listed to the CDI online address change service. There is no cost to use these services.

CDI has three methods to print the Licensee Email Address Report:

1) Printable Document Form (PDF) Report - (Adobe Acrobat Report)
